The selection of prints shown here represent two series of unique prints McGinness created while in-residence at the Printshop. For each series, he used several visual components--such as strands of barbed wire--and created a distinctly different composition in each print.

McGinness explored a variety of papers; the delicate Asian paper was printed on both sides to add texture and depth, and the heavy white cotton paper creates crisp contrast with the shades of blue ink.
